Anti-Histamine H3 receptor HRH3 Antibody Picoband® (Dylight488 Conjugate)

The histamine receptor H3 (HRH3) is a presynaptic autoreceptor on histamine neurons in the brain and a presynaptic heteroreceptor in nonhistamine-containing neurons in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. The deduced 445-amino acid HRH3 protein contains 7 predicted transmembrane domains. And it shares 22% and 21.4% amino acid sequence homology with the H1 (HRH1) and H2 (HRH2) receptors, respectively. The expression of recombinant HRH3 in a variety of cell lines conferred an ability to inhibit adenylate cyclase in response to histamine, but not to acetylcholine or any other biogenic amine. Additionally, HRH3 was most notably observed throughout the thalamus, the ventromedial hypothalamus, and the caudate nucleus. Strong expression was also seen in layers II, V, and VIb of the cerebral cortex, in the pyramidal layers of the hippocampus, and in olfactory tubercle.

Expressed predominantly in the CNS, with the greatest expression in the thalamus and caudate nucleus. The various isoforms are mainly coexpressed in brain, but their relative expression level varies in a region-specific manner. Isoform 3 and isoform 7 are highly expressed in the thalamus, caudate nucleus and cerebellum while isoform 5 and isoform 6 show a poor expression. Isoform 5 and isoform 6 show a high expression in the amygdala, substantia nigra, cerebral cortex and hypothalamus. Isoform 7 is not found in hypothalamus or substantia nigra.

The H3 subclass of histamine receptors could mediate the histamine signals in CNS and peripheral nervous system. Signals through the inhibition of adenylate cyclase and displays high constitutive activity (spontaneous activity in the absence of agonist). Agonist stimulation of isoform 3 neither modified adenylate cyclase activity nor induced intracellular calcium mobilization.
